It was fun but the story got laughably convoluted as it progressed. That's my only real complaint, I suppose.

MGS3 story was simple and the pathetic 1 dimensional characters in the game where laughable. And 2 story is much more emotional and deeper than MGS1 even tho 1 is close

he pretty much killed his freaking mento/mother man. Although its debatable which MGS's story was more emotional, it has to be MGS3 by all means.

Exactly people whined about MGS2 story being to complex, and other things, and MGS3 was n00bified bigtime. MGS4 looks like it's very story driven, so I can't wait for that

There was a reason for Raiden being such a wheener, it was important to the story. But really, it doesnt change the fact that he sucks

Well see, but considering how everyone loved MGS3s storyline even though it was the weakest of the three by far, i dont think Kojima will be so ambitious again because to some, a large number of plot twists constitutes complexity

MGS3's story is more emotional. After the fight with The Boss I cried and its the only game that managed to do that to me.

lordsettra12

 

definitely one of the greatest games ever.

People who say there's too much story should taken into account the fact that the experience is far larger than a film. Think about it a lord of the rings movie last for about 3 hours. Metal gear solid is about 40-50 hours i think.
Metal gear solid 2 isn't at all convoluted its just has a helluva lot there, which makes sense. If you just play it and concentrate you'll get it a lot easier. I was baffled as i hadn't played metal gear solid 1. I played metal gear solid 1 and then 2 and it just made 2 all that much better. There's no way any metal gear would work as a movie

You're right, but MGS2 had its share, and it was more complicated.  It was something that made you think, something like you would find in a novel or long movie.  I prefer it to MGS3's, which was more simple but still good.

Please.  Thief and Thief 2 smack MGS silly.  There's simply no comparison - Thief had better stealth gameplay, and wasn't constantly taking the player out of character for some silly cutscene.
